Yes.
what?
Most expensive item: a trip for 2 to Las Vegas to see the Police in concert (last year).
I've won other, smaller items...concert tickets, meet & greet contests to meet Duran Duran, money (from prizes and jackpots at casinos), hotel stays, etc. The biggest ticket item was definitely the trip to see the Police.
I'm not terribly lucky, usually.
That's pretty cool Stephanie!

Thanks.
Considering that I'd waited, 25 years to see them live, it was VERY nice.

I hope there was no expiration date for it!

In grammar school I won a silver dollar, still have it 50 or so years later. I won an iBook when Dealmac used to do that sort of thing (maybe they still do?). Won an iPod when I was at a seminar in Florida 3 or so years ago. Won a small crappy tv at an art fair once. Never bought a lottery ticket, maybe I should.

An album (as in vinyl) by Prince, which I promptly gifted to someone else.

A $300 gift certificate to a furrier (when I was 9 or 10!) Hilarious.
A wireless keyboard and mouse when Logitech did that big giveaway a few years ago
A digital camera at an industry networking event
A GPS that unfortunately was newer than the one I already had but didn't have one critical feature that I need (multiple destination plotting)
Smaller stuff like gift cards, a fruit basket, a bottle of wine etc.
